I've always used these screws for out door furniture with very good

building for a nephew. Local yards and the borg say these screws are being
phased out in favor of a coated screw like GripRite. Question is are they
as
good or better for non-staining ?

IMHO, I doubt it, but what the heck, I'm a boat builder..

Why not go stainless?

They aren't that expensive.

Might want to take a look at Jamestown Distributors.
